VfB Oldenburg

Emerging from the youth of TSV Großenkneten, Butt moved to VfB Oldenburg in 1991 , for which he first appeared in the first team in the 1994/95 season in the Regionalliga Nord and played 33 of 34 league games. After another season in which he played all 34 league matches and scored four goals even, he reached with the team as Regional champions the ascent to the 2. Bundesliga , where he on August 4, 1996 (1st Round) in 1: 1 -Draw in the home game against SV Meppen made his debut. On September 22nd (7th matchday) VfB Oldenburg lost 4-1 in their home game against VfL Wolfsburg ; Butt scored the only goal for VfB from a penalty. At times, Henning, Butts brother, was the second goalkeeper at VfB Oldenburg.

Hamburger SV

In 1997 Butt moved to Hamburger SV in the Bundesliga . He ousted Richard Golz there and remained a regular goalkeeper for four years. He made his Bundesliga debut on August 3, 1997 (1st matchday) in a 2-2 draw in the home game against Borussia Mönchengladbach ; he scored his first Bundesliga goal on September 12, 1998 (4th matchday) in a 1-1 draw in the home game against VfL Wolfsburg with a penalty that made it 1-0 in the 39th minute. Butt surpassed the seven penalties converted this season with nine in the following season and was one of the three most successful goal scorers of Hamburger SV alongside Roy Präger and Anthony Yeboah .

Bayer 04 Leverkusen

From 2001 to 2007 Butt was under contract with Bayer 04 Leverkusen . From August 3, 1997 to February 10, 2007, he missed only four league games; Last season he was expelled from the field in the 28th minute of the game on February 10 (21st matchday) - in a 2-2 draw in the home game against Eintracht Frankfurt - and suspended for two games, first by Benedikt Fernandez and later replaced by René Adler and eventually ousted by the latter. Thereupon Butt canceled his contract running until June 30, 2009 on April 30, 2007 early at the end of the season.

Benfica Lisbon

Despite offers from English and Spanish clubs, Butt opted for Champions League qualifier Benfica Lisbon , who announced the change on July 16, 2007. He played his first game for Benfica Lisbon on October 28, 2007 against Marítimo Funchal . However, he could not prevail against Quim , a reserve goalkeeper of the Portuguese national team , and it remained for him in this one use in the Primeira Liga . Butt's contract was terminated in agreement with the club.

FC Bayern Munich

Butt returned to Germany for free, where FC Bayern Munich hired him as an internationally experienced substitute goalkeeper for the 2008/09 season . Under coach Jürgen Klinsmann Butt rose to the goalkeeper in April 2009. He had to relinquish this position to Michael Rensing at the beginning of the 2009/10 season under the new coach Louis van Gaal , until he was promoted to the goalkeeper again from the 4th game day due to his insecurities. With a penalty converted on December 8, 2009 in the last group game of the Champions League in a 4-1 away win against Juventus Turin , Butt is the first Bayern goalkeeper to score in regular time. Butt won the double with Bayern in 2010 and was in goal at the lost Champions League final in May 2010 .

In February 2010, Butt extended his contract with Bayern Munich by one year until June 30, 2011. At the beginning of 2011, van Gaal made him the number two goal of Bayern despite good performances behind Thomas Kraft . After van Gaal's dismissal, interim coach Andries promoted Jonker Butt back to number one five game days before the end of the season. In May 2011 Butt's contract was extended to June 30, 2012. After Manuel Neuer was signed, Butt was number two again in the 2011/12 season . He played his last game on April 28, 2012 in a 2-0 win against VfB Stuttgart in the Allianz Arena at home .

National team

Butt completed three international matches for the A2 national team . He made his debut on October 6, 1999 in Moscow in a 1-1 draw against Russia's B selection. This was followed by the 4: 4 draw on March 28, 2000 in Offenbach against the A selection of Russia and the 2: 0 victory on August 15, 2000 in Marco de Canaveses against the B selection of Portugal.

In the senior national team , Butt made his debut on June 7, 2000 in the preparation game for the EM 2000 against Liechtenstein , when he came on for Jens Lehmann in the 8-2 win in the second half . At the tournament he was the third goalkeeper in the squad.

Butt also only played one half in his next two missions: In the 4-2 victory over the USA on March 27, 2002, he was substituted on for Frank Rost . At the World Cup in the same year he was again the second substitute and was with the team - without commitment - second in the tournament. For his third international game he came on June 1, 2003 in a 4-1 win over Canada with a substitution in the second half again for Rost.

After René Adler , who was to travel to South Africa as number 1 for the national team for the 2010 World Cup , injured himself shortly before the end of the 2009/10 season and canceled the national coach Joachim Löw , Butt was next to Manuel Neuer and Tim Wiese as one on May 6, 2010 nominated by three goalkeepers for the World Cup squad. On July 10, 2010, he played his only international match over 90 minutes in a 3-2 win against Uruguay in the game for third place . In addition, this was his last appearance in the German national team.

Performances as a goalkeeper

Butt was a penalty taker at both Hamburger SV and Bayer 04 Leverkusen and is the most accurate goalkeeper in Bundesliga history with the 26 resulting goals. In 2004, however, he conceded a goal because he was unable to rush back into goal in the away game against Schalke 04 after a converted penalty, so that Mike Hanke was able to score directly after the kick-off from the center line.

Butt converted penalties not only for Hamburg and Leverkusen, but also for FC Bayern Munich: he scored for all three Bundesliga teams on an international level, in Champions League matches with Juventus Turin .

Butt is not only the only goalkeeper who has scored goals in four divisions and in the Champions League, but also to this day the only goalkeeper who has scored two goals in two Bundesliga games. In the seasons 1998/99 (on May 22, 1999, final score 3: 1) and 1999/2000 (on August 21, 1999, final score 3: 0) Butt met against Franz Wohlfahrt , the then goalkeeper of VfB Stuttgart. Butt scored the 2-0 and 3-0 goals in both games. In the 1999/2000 season Butt, Roy Präger , and Tony Yeboah were Hamburger SV's most successful goal scorers with nine goals each.

In addition, he was also considered a good penalty goalkeeper, who is fifth among all Bundesliga keepers with 14 penalties averted.

Butt is also the only player in the history of the Bundesliga who twice finished a season with three second places each - the tragic, so-called “vice triple” with second place in the championship, cup and international competition. Since the Bundesliga was founded, this "vice triple" has only been booked by Bayer Leverkusen in 2002 and Bayern Munich in 2012, with Butt being the only one in the squad of the respective team, although in Munich only as a substitute goalkeeper with little playing time. In the first-mentioned season, he was also a member of the senior national team, which ultimately took second place at the 2002 World Cup .

After the playing career

For the 2012/13 season he followed Werner Kern as head of the youth performance center at FC Bayern Munich. Butt resigned from this post in early August 2012.

Butt has been working in the family-owned loading system company "BUTT loading ramps and industrial gates" from Großenkneten since 2013 . He is responsible for sales and marketing in the sales office south and lives with his wife and three children in Munich.

social commitment

Butt is socially committed and plays u. a. at various charity games in goal or as a field player. On June 3, 2012, he played as a center forward in the Hoheluft stadium in Hamburg at the celebrity game Kicken mit Herz for the children's heart station of the UKE .

Trivia

Butt met three different clubs against the same opponent in the Champions League. Against Juventus Turin he scored with the Hamburger SV, Bayer 04 Leverkusen and FC Bayern Munich each with penalties. This was only achieved by Ruud van Nistelrooy against FC Bayern in the jersey of PSV Eindhoven , Manchester United and Real Madrid and Cristiano Ronaldo against Olympique Lyon for Manchester United, Real Madrid and Juventus Turin.
